GO DOWN, DEATH

Oh, de sperrit say: I want you for to
Go down, death, easy,
I want you go down, death, easy,
I want you go down, death, easy,
An' bring my servant home.

cho: Go down, death, go down.
Preach my glory an' my mighty name.
I want you go down, I want you go down
An' bring my servant home.

Oh, de sperrit say: I want you for to
Creep to de bedside easy,
I want you creep to de bedside easy,
I want you creep to de bedside easy,
An' bring my servant home.

Oh, de sperrit say: I want you for to
Close de eyelids easy,
I want you close de eyelids easy,
I want you close de eyelids easy,
An' bring my servant home.

Oh, de sperrit say: I want you for to
Cut loose de heart-strings easy,
I want you cut loose de heart-strings easy,
I want you cut loose de heart-strings easy,
An' bring my servant home.

Oh, de sperrit say: I want you for to
Step to de graveyard easy,
I want you step to de graveyard easy,
I want you step to de graveyard easy,
An' bring my servant home.

Oh, de sperrit say: I want you for to
Pass over hell-flames easy,
I want you pass over hell-flames easy,
I want you pass over hell-flames easy,
An' bring my servant home.

Oh, de sperrit say: I want you for to
March up in de Kingdom easy,
I want you march up in de Kingdom easy,
I want you march up in de Kingdom easy,
An' bring my servant home.

cho: Go down, death, go down.
Preach my glory an' my mighty name.
I want you go down, I want you go down,
An' bring my servant home.

From Mellows, R.E. Kennedy
